tributes the razors among the ladies
and they select the gentlemen whose
number on their napkin corresponds
with that on their razor for tonsorial
performance, and finish the figure
with a dance. Everything, with
measure" is figure that requires six
white dress-coats for the gentlemen,
there being on the back of each coat a
measuring scale of different length.
The ladies receive tape measures cor
responding with the measure on some
gentleman's coat. Those having
measures of the same length are part
ners or the dance.
Very amusing is the "sack-jumping"
figure. Six sacks of white muslin are
given to the gentlemen, who step into
them and hold the upper end to their
waists. A lady is seated on the oppo-
site side, and at the signal, CO." the
gentlemen jump toward her, the one
reaching her first being her partner
for the dance. The remaining gentle
men choose their partners
among the ladies and dance in
costume. The auction" figure is
another that causes much fun and
liveliness. For this six rosettes with
numbers are to be given to the ladies.
The auctioneer requires six bonbon-
nieres, numbered, filed with candies,
and a gavel. Six ladies', with their
numbers attached to their corsages,
choose twelve gentlemen, and the
auction begins. The bonbonnieres
are placed on a stand and the
auctioneer sells one after another to
the highest bidder. No gentleman is
permitted to buy more than one bon
bonniere. After the six have been
sold they are presented to the ladies
whose numbers correspond. The
gentlemen not having purchased are
to withdraw, while the rest conclude
the figure with dance.
Among the most popular favors for
the german just now are silver birds
with feather tails, silver yachts, horse
shoes, single and double; smelling
bottles, fans, straw hats, bicycles. ice
cream freezers, umbrellas, sailor hats,
TASKS. Some of the wooden favors
are lawn tennis racquets, bow and ar
row, base ball bat, polo mallet, oars,
coaching umbrellas and croquet mall
lets.
